The Many Roles of Macrophages in Skeletal Muscle Injury and Repair

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Skeletal muscle is essential to physical activity and energy metabolism. Maintaining intact functions of skeletal muscle is crucial to health and wellbeing.

The Skeletal Muscle Satellite Cell [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 2011
The skeletal muscle satellite cell was first described and named based on its anatomic location between the myofiber plasma and basement membranes. In 1961, two independent studies by Alexander Mauro and Bernard Katz provided the first electron microscopic descriptions of satellite cells in frog and rat muscles.

HDAC4 Regulates Skeletal Muscle Regeneration via Soluble Factors

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Skeletal muscle possesses a high ability to regenerate after an insult or in pathological conditions, relying on satellite cells, the skeletal muscle stem cells.

Functional crosstalk of PGC-1 coactivators and inflammation in skeletal muscle pathophysiology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Skeletal muscle is an organ involved in whole body movement and energy metabolism with the ability to dynamically adapt to different states of (dis-)use.

Functional Overload Enhances Satellite Cell Properties in Skeletal Muscle

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2016
Skeletal muscle represents a plentiful and accessible source of adult stem cells. Skeletal-muscle-derived stem cells, termed satellite cells, play essential roles in postnatal growth, maintenance, repair, and regeneration of skeletal muscle.

Involvement of muscle satellite cell dysfunction in neuromuscular disorders: Expanding the portfolio of satellite cell-opathies

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Translational Myology, 2022
Neuromuscular disorders are a heterogeneous group of acquired or hereditary conditions that affect striated muscle function. The resulting decrease in muscle strength and motility irreversibly impacts quality of life.

Transplantation to study satellite cell heterogeneity in skeletal muscle

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Skeletal muscle has a remarkable capacity to regenerate throughout life, which is mediated by its resident muscle stem cells, also called satellite cells. Satellite cells, located periphery to the muscle fibers and underneath the basal lamina, are an indispensable cellular source for muscle regeneration. Satellite cell transplantation into regenerating

Skeletal muscle mTORC1 regulates whole-body metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Skeletal muscle, which represents over 40% of the total body mass, is a dynamic tissue with a key role in the maintenance of metabolic homeostasis. Several lines of evidence indicate that alterations of the normal muscle function, as for example in ...

Impaired skeletal muscle regeneration in the absence of fibrosis during hibernation in 13-lined ground squirrels.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Skeletal muscle atrophy can occur as a consequence of immobilization and/or starvation in the majority of vertebrates studied. In contrast, hibernating mammals are protected against the loss of muscle mass despite long periods of inactivity and lack of ...

Skeletal muscle in health and disease

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2020
Skeletal muscle fibres are multinucleated cells that contain postmitotic nuclei (i.e. they are no longer able to divide) and perform muscle contraction.
